New Delhi, Feb 13 (TIWN) With the bypolls in five municipal wards in Delhi nearing, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) sharpened its attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party, running the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD).
The AAP's MCD in-charge Durgesh Pathak at a press conference on Saturday said, "BJP ruled Municipal Corporations of Delhi for last 15 years and made them financially corrupt. Two out of three civic bodies of Delhi are in such a state that they can not pay monthly wages of employees. After Delhi Government released Rs 1,095 crore to provide salaries and other dues of employees and sanitation staff, BJP-ruled MCDs have proposed to increase Councillors funds from Rs 50 lakh to Rs one crore and above."
